May 1, 2014

Does this little puppy look familiar? Yep, that's because it's the same puppy that was at the baseball fields a couple of weeks ago. That same litter was there the next week when we were there for baseball games. All the kids begged and pleaded: "We'll pay for it, we'll take care if it, we'll feed it." They were pretty determined. It didn't help that the owner said they could buy if for $100 instead of $150 (since they were paying themselves). I told them I didn't want them to make an impulsive decision right then, so we would wait until Thursday of the next week, and I would call the owner then to see if they had any left. I was secretly hoping that they would all be taken by then, or that the kids would forget within 5 days. Oh no, Thursday came and the first thing Megan said to me when she got up that morning was, "Can you call about the dogs today." So when Dad got home that evening we called and sure enough they still had puppies (and they even had the one Megan and Nathan had been eyeing). The kids pooled their money together and we went and picked up the newest member of our family. The kids named her Molly. She is pretty cute. And she is certainly loved.
